Deadline reports that Chris Pratt will star in an adaptation of Way of The Warrior Kid directed by McG. Pratt is set to lead a forthcoming adaptation of Jocko Willink’s Way of the Warrior Kid: From Wimpy to Warrior the Navy SEAL Way novel, which was published in 2017.
“Fifth grade was the worst year of Marc’s life. He stunk at gym class, math was too hard for him, the school lunch was horrible, and his class field trip was ruined because he couldn’t swim,” the synopsis for the novel reads. “And the most awful thing about fifth grade? Kenny Williamson, the class bully, who calls himself the King of the Jungle Gym. When Marc’s mother tells him that his uncle Jake is coming to stay for the whole summer, Marc can’t wait. Uncle Jake is a for-real, super-cool Navy SEAL. And Uncle Jake has a plan. He’s going to turn Marc into a warrior.”
